The Lumumba Plot: The Secret History of the CIA and a Cold War Assassination by Stuart A. Reid

tyelperinquar's review against another edition

challenging informative slow-paced

4.0

(well researched and well written, slogged through. thought cia would be more involved. good final chapter and epilogue. surprised by how recent—more Cold War books in future?)
((will edit this later))
